Mechanical factors have been demonstrated to play a fundamental role in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis and can affect the architecture of the generated vascular network. Through the regulation of mechanical factors in engineered tissues, various mechanical strategies can be used to optimize the preformed vascular network and promote its rapid integration with host vessels. Optimization of the mechanical properties of scaffolds, including controlling scaffold stiffness, increasing surface roughness and anisotropic structure, and designing interconnected, hierarchical pore structures, is beneficial for the <i>in vitro</i> formation of vascular networks and the ingrowth of host blood vessels. The incorporation of hollow channels into scaffolds promotes the formation of patterned vascular networks. Dynamic stretching and perfusion can facilitate the formation and maturation of preformed vascular networks <i>in vitro</i>. Several indirect mechanical strategies provide sustained mechanical stimulation to engineered tissues <i>in vivo</i>, which further promotes the vascularization of implants within the body. Additionally, stiffness gradients, anisotropic substrates and hollow channels in scaffolds, as well as external cyclic stretch, boundary constraints and dynamic flow culture, can effectively regulate the alignment of vascular networks, thereby promoting better integration of prevascularized engineered tissues with host blood vessels.

{"title":"Glutamine promotes the proliferation of intestinal stem cells via inhibition of TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator promoter methylation in burned mice","authors":"Panyang Zhang, Dan Wu, Xule Zha, Sen Su, Yajuan Zhang, Yan Wei, Lin Xia, Shijun Fan, Xi Peng","doi":"10.1093/burnst/tkae045","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/burnst/tkae045","url":null,"abstract":"Background Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) play a pivotal role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and facilitating the restoration of intestinal mucosal barrier integrity. Glutamine (Gln) is a crucial energy substrate in the intestine, promoting the proliferation of ISCs and mitigating damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier after burn injury. However, the underlying mechanism has not yet been fully elucidated. The objective of this study was to explore the mechanism by which Gln facilitates the proliferation of ISCs. Methods A mouse burn model was established to investigate the impact of Gln on intestinal function. Subsequently, crypts were isolated, and changes in TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) expression were assessed using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The effects of TIGAR on cell proliferation were validated through CCK-8, EdU, and clonogenicity assays. Furthermore, the effect of TIGAR on Yes-associated protein (YAP) nuclear translocation and ferroptosis was examined by western blotting and immunofluorescence staining. Finally, dot blot analysis and methylation-specific PCR were performed to evaluate the effect of Gln on TIGAR promoter methylation. Results The mRNA and protein levels of TIGAR decreased after burn injury, and supplementation with Gln increased the expression of TIGAR. TIGAR accelerates the nuclear translocation of YAP, thereby increasing the proliferation of ISCs. Concurrently, TIGAR promotes the synthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and glutathione to suppress ferroptosis in ISCs. Subsequent investigations demonstrated that Gln inhibits TIGAR promoter methylation by increasing the expression of the demethylase ten-eleven translocation. This change increased TIGAR transcription, increased NADPH synthesis, and reduced oxidative stress, thereby facilitating the restoration of intestinal mucosal barrier integrity post-burn injury. Conclusions Our data confirmed the inhibitory effect of Gln on TIGAR promoter methylation, which facilitates YAP translocation into the nucleus and suppresses ferroptosis, ultimately promoting the proliferation of ISCs.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142325483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The pharmacological landscape of chronic subdural hematoma: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized and non-randomized controlled studies.","authors":"Tao Liu,Zhihao Zhao,Mingqi Liu,Shuo An,Meng Nie,Xuanhui Liu,Yu Qian,Ye Tian,Jianning Zhang,Rongcai Jiang","doi":"10.1093/burnst/tkae034","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/burnst/tkae034","url":null,"abstract":"BackgroundThere are various treatment modalities for chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) and there is extensive debate surrounding pharmaceutical interventions. There is no consensus regarding the relative efficacy and safety of multiple treatment modalities. This study aims to investigate this issue and offer potential clinical recommendations.MethodsWe searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and the Cochrane Library from January 2000 to May 2023 to identify randomized and nonrandomized controlled studies reporting one or more outcomes associated with the pharmacologic management of CSDH. The primary outcomes of interest included recurrence, favorable prognosis and adverse events, while the secondary outcomes included a reduction in hematoma volume and mortality. Pooled estimates, credible intervals and odds ratios were calculated for all outcomes using a fixed effects model. Confidence in network meta-analysis judgments were employed to stratify the evidential quality. This study was registered with PROSPERO: CRD42023406599.ResultsThe search strategy yielded 656 references; ultimately, 36 studies involving 8082 patients fulfilled our predefined inclusion criteria. The findings suggested that statins + glucocorticoids (GCs) ranked highest for preventing recurrence, improving prognosis and facilitating hematoma absorption. Tranexamic acid ranked second highest for preventing recurrence. Statins were found to be the preferred drug intervention for decreasing mortality and preventing adverse events. Antithrombotic agents ranked lowest in terms of decreasing mortality and improving prognosis.ConclusionsOur findings indicate that statins + GCs may be the most effective treatment modality for preventing recurrence, improving patient prognosis and facilitating hematoma absorption. In terms of reducing mortality and preventing adverse events, statins may be superior to other pharmacological interventions. Routine use of GCs is not suggested for patients with CSDH. Further prospective research is needed to directly compare the efficacy and superiority of various pharmaceutical interventions targeting CSDH to reinforce and validate our findings.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"38 1","pages":"tkae034"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142328857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to develop a multifunctional specific therapeutic photo-activated release nanosystem [HMPB@MB@AuNPs@PMB@HA (HMAPH)] by loading photosensitizer methylene blue (MB) into hollow mesoporous Prussian blue nanostructures and modifying the surface with gold particles, polymyxin B (PMB) and hydrophilic hyaluronic acid. Methods The HMAPH was characterized using transmission electron microscopy, UV–vis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photon spectroscopy. The photothermal performance, iron ion release and free radical generation of the HMAPH were measured under different conditions to investigate its thermo-responsive cascade reaction. The antibacterial ability of HMAPH was investigated using live/dead fluorescence tests. The morphology and membrane integrity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) were investigated using transmission electron microscopy. The anti-biofilm activity of HMAPH was evaluated using crystal violet and SYBR Green I staining. Finally, we established a mouse model of a skin wound infected by P. aeruginosa to confirm the in vivo effectiveness of HMAPH. We used immunofluorescent staining, hematoxylin–eosin staining, Masson staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to examine whether HMAPH promoted wound healing and reduced inflammatory damage. Results In this study, hyaluronic acid was decomposed under the action of hyaluronidase. Also, the exposed nanomaterials specifically bound to the outer membrane of P. aeruginosa through PMB to increase the membrane sensitivity to photodynamic treatment. Under dual-light irradiation, a large amount of iron ions released by HMAPH underwent a Fenton reaction with H2O2 in bacteria to generate hydroxyl radicals (•OH), enabling direct killing of cells by hyperthermia. Additionally, the photodynamic activity of MB released by photo-induced activation led to the generation of reactive oxygen species, achieving synergistic and effective inhibition of P. aeruginosa. HMAPH also inhibited biofilm formation and downregulated the expression of virulence factors. In vivo experiments revealed that HMAPH accelerated the healing of P. aeruginosa-infected wounds by promoting angiogenesis and skin regeneration, inhibiting the inflammatory response and promoting M1 to M2 polarization. Conclusions Our study proposed a strategy against bacteria and biofilms through a synergistic photothermal–photodynamic–Fenton reaction, opening up new prospects for combating biofilm-associated infections.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142321381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early intervention and prevention are critical and challenging. This study aimed to develop a simple risk prediction model to identify high-risk populations of SWI and to guide examination programs and intervention strategies. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data obtained from 6715 patients who underwent median sternotomy between January 2016 and December 2020. The least absolute shrink and selection operator (LASSO) regression method selected the optimal subset of predictors, and multivariate logistic regression helped screen the significant factors. The nomogram model was built based on all significant factors. Area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to assess the model's performance. Results LASSO regression analysis selected an optimal subset containing nine predictors that were all statistically significant in multivariate logistic regression analysis. Independent risk factors of SWI included female [odds ratio (OR) = 3.405, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.535–4.573], chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR = 4.679, 95% CI = 2.916–7.508), drinking (OR = 2.025, 95% CI = 1.437–2.855), smoking (OR = 7.059, 95% CI = 5.034–9.898), re-operation (OR = 3.235, 95% CI = 1.087–9.623), heart failure (OR = 1.555, 95% CI = 1.200–2.016) and repeated endotracheal intubation (OR = 1.975, 95% CI = 1.405–2.774).

The AUC of the nomogram was 0.770 (95% CI = 0.745–0.795) with relatively good sensitivity (0.798) and accuracy (0.620), exhibiting moderately good discernment. The model also showed an excellent fitting degree on the calibration curve. Finally, the DCA presented a remarkable net benefit.

Researchers have found that wound infections make patients more upset and cost the healthcare system a lot of money. Surgical site infections happen a lot to people who have recently had surgery. This study shows that such surgical infection is linked to a high rate of illness and death. This is shown by the fact that 25% of patients get serious sepsis and need to be transferred to an intensive care unit. In both animal models and people, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play an active role in all stages of wound healing and have positive effects. Exosomes are one of the main things MSCs release.
